I think I saw this in the forums before... Just curious who are some of the most extreme pitchers you've ever seen? As in- Best ratings, best stats, most innings pitched, etc. Just wondering... post links to some cool players if you got em

Others more recently have come within shouting distance of some of his stats, but they've done it in a much more pitcher-friendly era of the World. OPS in Nen's heyday was .050 higher, so his stats are all the more ridiculous. Plus it was the AL, so facing the DH instead of pitchers.

Matt Ross had the single best season I've ever seen a pitcher have (S7: 26-4, 0.58 WHIP, 0.71 ERA). That's more wins (26) than earned runs given up (23). His overall career was pretty great (10 Cy Youngs, including nine straight, 277 wins, 3,022 K, 0.93 WHIP and 2.18 ERA), if somewhat short.

hineiii...Your guy Benjamin Miles wins the "Best Pitcher Ever" hands down. He had more 30 win seasons than most SP do 10 wins seasons! He was already 31 when the world started, but he went through a 5 year stretch where he averaged over 30 wins per season and had an OAV of under 2.00! that's CRAZY!
